Just check Nekotail's account for any micomet moments recently. And yes we're pretty dry this month apart from a few moments during shiraken collabs, the discord pfp, and a couple of miko mentions from suisei. But Weiss Schwartz is in less than a week!

>>61294737
I love MiComet's daughter de gozaru

It's cute that Miko still has the mcmt fanart as her discord profile pic
I really need Suisei to participate in these practice streams soon to find out if she changed her pic as well lol
Or maybe she changed it but only in the shiraken server to avoid being too gay

Thank you for the compliments! It's always encouraging to hear that other people liked what you wrote, not just yourself. I visit /micomet/ from time to time because I like both ladies, and because you folks are usually in the business of sharing quality content and being quality people. I learned about the ruckus and the recent lack of written works in the last thread, so I asked for inspiration and started writing based on the goodnight text idea. I'm quite busy irl and have other projects (for the writing thread and elsewhere), but I will try to continue NFb too.

>>61299807
Also looking at it it's kinda odd because the one that drew it(not the one that posted it) draws a ton of Suityan and they all have the stars.

miComet LOVE

Can anyone translate their intros from the prop hunt collab? Miko introduced herself and said something about the type of game I think, then Suisei introduced herself saying something, I believe it was about Miko’s comment since Miko went “I hate Suichan.”

>>61303491
sauce?

I currently have a perverted situation in my head where they're fucking each other raw with Futamiko ontop but for some reason don't actually know it's the other and are just having a fun and great time.
And then suddenly the curtain falls and the exact moment Micomet realize they've been having business sex, Miko cums inside and Suisei is just speechless while becoming fully aware of how she's getting filled up to the brim by her business partner. Miko, after getting off her high, gets so embarrassed she stammers around and tries to make sense of it and pulls out but immediately stops talking again when she hears Suisei squeal as the white stuff leaks out. The next day they just spend the entire time in denial about how good it felt and how much they want to do it again but can't help but fantasize about it all day.

oh no i killed the thread with my lewdposting.

>>61305984
No no ,continue....

you're too cute anon!
thank you for doing this for us, we really appreciate it.
feel free to pop in whenever, take your time and take care of yourself!

also seconding the other anon, please continue...

I'm not scared away just stuck at work. This is actually pretty good. Continue please.

It's too late and I'm half asleep now.
The most I can think of
>They agree to meet up again at night under the condition that the lights stay off, they use blindfolds and don't make any sounds so they don't have to be constantly aware of who they're fucking.
>goes quite well at first, they're touching and fondling and getting into some intense foreplay, but every now and then a sharp breath escapes and they go back to imagining the other's facial expression and actively try to suppress the thoughts
>their plan fails as soon as penetration happens and the moans don't stop.
>they both stop caring towards the end and as their brains fill up with thoughts of how lovely their business partner feels and they call each other's names as they climax
>in the aftermath they don't dare to look each other in the face while pillow talking and just keep pushing closer to cuddle more.

kek the brainrot is real
i want mikochi to sing midnight mission

>>61309188
Works better this way because the appeal of the fantasy is for Suisei to realize that her stupid pon business baby is the one to turn her into a squealing woman and give her such an incredible orgasm and creampie that she can't stop thinking of it.

Will the Weiss Schwarz event have streaming tickets?
>>61292297
>>61294244
I’d say this is the natural progression of these threads over the years.
A stray mention of one in the other’s stream used to be met with an array of “wdsmbt” and “rent-free” posting, now Suisei can list Miko with Towa as the holos she’s closest to without batting an eye and this thread will flare up for a minute.
New and covert situations are what keeps the threads engaged. The Singapore trip kept people speculating days on end about every little thing.

>>61314681
>Will the Weiss Schwarz event have streaming tickets?
Yes, confirmed.
About the other part: we already knew that though.
It's hard to imagine or act surprised when something we've always known (and was already confirmed/talked about in the past) is said by any of them.
We know they're close. We know they talk to each other daily. We know how much they love and care about each other. We know how much time they spend inside their own heads.
The Singapore trip was SHOCKINGLY absurd and 10000% unexpected. Out of no fucking where. Like what the fuck, that's the kind of thing I'd joke about expecting it to never ever happen.
We're probably getting lazy due to overdosing on micomeds.
This thread will probably explode once the vlog or sugar sugar mv is out.

Lol I just realized I wrote sugar twice and forgot the rush. My bad and thanks anon.
Won't sugar rush release literally next month after the live?
Vlog will take a while.

Ya'll are saying that this month was dry but desu I still can't get over the Shiraken ch where Suisei thinks of Miko right before her performance holy gay

>>61309068
>>61309976
Hot. Thank you anon...

>>61314681
It's because there hasn't been a lot of content this month. Just last month the threads were reaching bump limit within 2 days because of the Singapore trip. And in August too because of Sugar Rush and Idol. Also what >>61314681 said.
>>61316525
Anonchama that was last month...

>>61316875
in reality it was last month
in my head it's every day

>>61316525
only two anons said that, I'm very happy with what we got this month
suityan instantly going for mikochi does wonders to my soul
why are they so fucking cute
>>61316875
october was a very odd month for anons (either they thought it was still september or kept thinking october stuff happened in september instead)

>>61317216
Based migo

If Suisei were to actually fly to NY for the concert, do you think Miko would go as well? Miko has been very vocal about wanting to come to New York, which is a surprise since she's always wanted to go to Los Angeles because of Los Santos. Will we have overseas miComet sex part 2?

>>61329913
I don't think so? they both know they are willingly fucking someone. Maybe some mind fucking though?

>>61329913
>>61330314
They can be drunk in that prompt. Then suddenly sobered up and realized they were fucking each other.

https://youtu.be/PPdAtGTf64w&t=110
I love how awkward this exchange got, luckily they defused it with a bit of comedy. Also, why was this such an important story for Suisei? She initially prompted Miko for a final tale and then brought it up herself.

>>61301260
Glad you enjoyed your brief visit, have a good day!

>>61335575
i want a tiny migo
suityan please share

>>61317458
Suisei won't go there and neither will Miko
even if miko wanted to her schedule is too full and NY is too far away
plus they would be robbed, shot or raped by niggers
fuck america

>>61332470
they quickly realized the implications of sharing such a story
micometchads are well behaved though so there's nothing to worry about.
mmm i wonder why.

Ok, I’ve been trying to get into the streaming site (eplus) but it’s blocking me from creating an account so it may be region locked to Japan.
Here’s the link if anyone is interested

>>61369123
Yeah I can't register either. Unless we are both going to the wrong place. I'll check when I get home from work and see if I can figure it out if other anons can't.

Does Suisei enjoy squishing Miko's belly fat?

Thinking back is their stationary they were writing on plain(like Suityans just blue flowers and Miko her bell and Sakura)and they drew on the white as extra beforehand or is the white part pre made on to it?
I'm assuming Suityan made hers beforehand due to her being drawn in white but Miko's head is in color?

Nightly Firmament, blossom! [Part 2]


Right after Miko had ended her stream with a loud goodbye, she felt tired: The energy her audience had given her was gone. Luckily, she had nothing to do apart from going to bed anyway.
"Sui-chan will be sound asleep by now, snug in her bed...I wonder if she is wearing the little nightgown I gifted her? God, I hope she does. She looks so cute in it!" Miko thought as she slipped into her pajamas and crawled under the covers.

Checking her phone, Miko read Suisei's request again. She loved playing such an important role in Suisei's life, sending the industrious idol to sleep with her poetic business friendship declarations. For her part, she also needed her Sui-chan - in the form of the adorable little doll sitting on her nightstand. Miko began her usual ritual of kissing the doll's forehead, looking into its eyes and stroking its hair before hugging it tenderly.

"Oh little Suifriend, what would I do without you?" Miko whispered.
She still felt slightly ashamed of needing a doll to fall asleep. But when she had confessed it to Suisei, Miko had only received encouragement: Naturally her business partner, a doll enthusiast herself, hadn't thought less of Miko for it. And though she had not said it outright, Miko had noticed that Suisei had been happy to learn that Miko slept with a Suifriend doll every night. Miko had sent Suisei an image of little Suifriend being squished against her chest once, and Miko liked to believe that her Sui-chan looked at that image frequently while smiling with flushed cheeks (a belief with which Miko, though she could not confirm its veracity until years later, showed remarkable insight).

All doubts and sorrows left Miko's mind as she softly rubbed her little Suifriend against her. She only had another short thought before she fell into a deep, restful sleep.
"With you by night and my Sui-chan by day I'm never alone, right? I'm a lucky girl, after all..."

>>61428780
That was cute thank you for continuing. Hope to see more in the future when you have time.
It can also kinda be construed as a precursor to this anon's >>61361212 horny greentext. It's all pretty great.

Has Miko ever drawn Suisei?

>>61431684
Does this count?

>>61430938
Thank you! I'm happy about every response/feedback, positive or negative. The only bad thing is writing something and feeling like noone else cares.
It kind of fits with the greentext! But I didn't read it, and I don't feel like NFb will include sex or even masturbation.

Suisei betrayed Miko, it's a good thing Miko seems to have stopped interacting with that traitor.

this stream was so unhinged

A few days ago, Comic Fiesta in Malaysia announced that they would have Sakura Miko as their special talk show guest, along with one other surprise guest. Today they announced who it is. Can anons guess who?

The Malaysia Comic Fiesta is on Dec 23 and 24. I'll consider this as my miComet Christmas if they don't Collab on the 25th.

>>61497747
They're just gonna call in right? No way they'll make them travel overseas on christmas.

>>61498846
Pretty sure they'll just call in, yep.

Suisei fucked up and betrayed Miko. Even Miko is avoiding her now.

>>61499646
this but only first, second and sixth words

Cute Suisei being so disappointed she couldn't participate in Mikoti's sportsfes due to recording and being so happy it got moved so she could.

Miko will join at 22 JST

>>61500724
>it got moved
I want to believe that Suityan had to fight management or just gently asked them to move the schedule so she can join Miko's sport fes

>>61500738
i think you meant sui will join

Someone asked if there's gonna be a sugar rush stream. Miko acted all coy so there might be one.

Mikochi knows Sui streamed Minecraft earlier because it turns out they were talking before their respective streams. Sui sent her a message asking her what she can do and Miko gave her some stuff she could help around with. 35p told her Sui practiced alone kek (cute hoshiyo35ps).

Miko also mentioned that she sent Suichan a message about a game she wanted to play with her.

>>61504229
mikochi is an awful liar so if she's dodging the answer, the odds are pretty high, i'm excited.
thank you anon, i've been fading in and out of consciousness (i hate mornings)

sui arrived
gozaru's stream is literally not loading for me on pc
and 140p on mobile
mikochi's stream was fine...

What does this mean? For the live? But we already know it's gonna be streamed
MV? Single release?

>>61505440
No idea. SC said 配信 not MV. So might be a shill stream or any stream related to sugar rush.

Miko's reaction when chat told her she'd join her in MC at 22 was very cute
It seems she was the only one who knew Suisei's location before she showed up on stream too

npc sui is the cutest thing ever

Miko was totally jealous of gozaru
I won't take meds

>>61509058

she was flexing suityan

oh, the one that had shachou telling them to the confess their eternal love for each other kek

What kind of game do you think Miko found that she wants to play with Suisei? I think it's probably a puzzle/escape gamesince she knows suicha loves those
Hopefully it's a long series

>>61522672
lowkey hoping for portal 2
coop games with puzzle mechanics...
micomet should play (only possible if they're off-collabing) brothers: a tale of two sons and mikochi should be the older brother

Would be better if he deleted his channel entirely.
>>61531669
No

>>61531669
I don't think it was? Alot of tee tee surprisingly gets looked over between them. Fuck it took up until a couple weeks ago for the kokoro talk to get translated.
Also I watched Irohas POV from today and for a hot minute I thought she was turning the Holo hunting sign into us.

i'm newfag, what happened to sushi?

>>61532298
Every December, Youtube sends a Christmas gift to random content creators by fucking with the algorithm/AI/something else before the engineers leave on holidays. Last year Sushi was one of the lucky recipients of some anti-plagiarism tweak and had to nuke much of his archives to avoid getting his channel banned. Or that's the assumption anyway, I don't know if he ever commented on it, but I dimly recall some other clipper complained about it.

>>61532535
what akutan moment are you talking about?

>>61535795
NTA but here, if I got anything wrong please fix it, going by memory
Context: They were talking about messages they received (Good luck, inspirational, etc.)
Suityan was complaining that Mikochi never stops talking about her during her streams but hadn't even sent her a private message (wishing her luck)
Aqutan tried to defend Mikochi saying she probably had her best interests in mind and that sometimes, receiving a "good luck" messages puts more stress/pressure on the person receiving it than actually calms her down.
Suityan then proceeded to fake cry "t-thank you mikochi... thank you for being considerate uuuu~"
Mikochi, who had been watching the stream instantly sent a message to Suityan
And Suityan lost her mind (happy).
Aqutan was very interested and happy that Mikochi had managed to send her a message, asking her (excitedly) what Mikochi had sent... until Koyori also sent Suityan a message wishing her good luck... Aqutan lost all interest in that conversation and didn't care about what others had sent LOL
I'll get the timestamp later.

>>61537494
ooh okay, thanks anon! I remember this startend moment, I didn't notice aqua had such a reaction though kek

What's funny about the dm fiasco is that Polpol had leaked Mikochi's message... on Shiraken's discord.
(all of Shiraken wished her good luck)
Suityan wanted Mikochi to DM her instead lmao
Smart as fuck if you ask me.

>>61538963
It also reminds me of when they tweeted after Mario Kart. Super cute how Sui specifically wants Mikochi's encouragement

Yep. Definitely the clingy type. Like she always needs to show everyone Migo is hers. Kek

>>61538963
She wanted to be dm'ed the day before just like Aqua and Towa did, the whole discussion was about that, even Miko mentioned it in her own stream, that's why Suisei complained
That discord message polka leaked was 2 weeks before the tournament and Miko said she didn't send another message the day before because Suisei never answered or left a reaction, but then added that she didn't want to come across as too clingy

Takamori gay fanart pops up in my TL and I was surprised it was tagged as #Takamori
They doesn't have a rule to keep gay shipping out of their eyes?

>>61567225
EN generally do not care about shipping and porn so fans don't need to hide anything unless they want to

>>61568177
Wow I didn't know that
They were doing cunnilings in that fanart tho
If it was me I'd be hella uncomfortable lol

>>61572844
kiara likes it, mori not so much but she ignores it (my friend is a tkmrfag)
en doesn't have the same overprotective culture jp has

Why do you think Micomet is so overly attached to each other? They're always so happy when they can do things together.

>>61597192
they love each other and love spending time together
suityan is very needy and mikochi is more than happy to indulge
